I'm sorry guys. I'm done. I literally can not do anything online. For some reason, the connection is just brutal to the point where I can't do anything.

Please, remove me from the league.

Just retire the coach

It was a little choppy for me but nothing that completely threw off my game. I've only played 2 other online games but neither had lag. Experienced this before?

Dude, on that Heath Miller catch, after I threw the ball, I saw nothing until after I was tackled. I wasn't aware he caught it until the screen told me he had made a catch. I literally didn't even see your Field Goal.

I play FIFA and NHL online and never experience that kind of lag. I'm shocked I even got into the game._________________ Come Follow The Great NSFL! Other Sports / Steelers Forum Moderator - Feel Free To PM Me For Help About Anything!

And yeah, that's terrible. I was wondering why you almost got a delay of game 3 times, but I get it now.

Had 6 total drops on offense in 2 drives in the rain. Felt like the Jets!

Yeah, that was far from my intentions. I like to get my play set up and go. And yeah, I played a few MUT games online last year - didn't have that issue one bit._________________ Come Follow The Great NSFL! Other Sports / Steelers Forum Moderator - Feel Free To PM Me For Help About Anything!
